Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 118

When she sees the bloody mouth, Jenny feels stunned, and there seemingly is something that suddenly hits her brain. She becomes sober immediately.

“Oh, god...”

The bloody big mouth also cries out at the same time.

“Good lord, you scares me to death.”

After seeing clearly the person with that mouth in front of her, Jenny trembles with anger and glares at her madly, “Victoria, can you stop being so scary at night?”

At this moment, Victoria can be smelled alcohol, and the crimson lipstick on her mouth has smudged, which looks like blood. There is sticky red juice all over her body which she rubs against the bed. The whole picture is very scary.

After a long sigh of relief, she hold Jenny’s shoulder,

“You wake up finally. You really scare the heck out of me. I thought you were as drunk as I was and then went to sleep.

Jenny is shocked, “am I drunk?”

She suddenly recalls the picture before she fainted.

She touches her neck subconsciously and still feels the feeling of suffocation, but now she is lying on the bed and just woke up, which turns the cruel pictures and conversations into a very real dream.

Is it a dream?

Victoria was killed by Luke in her dream.

She grabs Victoria’s hands suddenly, and chokes out,

“What happens with you? I thought you were dead.”

“What? Don’t curse me...”

Thinking of the previous picture, Jenny feels cold from the bottom of her feet and suddenly hugs Victoria and begins to cry.

Victoria is shocked by her reaction. She puts her hands aside and doesn’t know what to do. She pats her back gently, “what happens?”

“...”

“Are you going to profess your love for me... Actually I prefer men...And those who are strong...”

“...”

“Stop crying. Or if you can try to build muscles, I can think about it...”

Finding that she is saying something crazy, Jenny relaxes her hands and laughs out, “what are you thinking about? I am not homosexual.”

“Thank god. You are normal finally. I’ve been scared by you.”

Victoria shrinks her neck exaggeratedly and holds her arms with shudder.

“What’s going on?” Jenny raises her hands to wipe her tears and looks at Victoria. It’s afraid that she’s the only one who knows what has happened.

Victoria seeming doesn’t sober up. She touches her head in a daze. “After I came back home, I slept. After that I wanted to drink some water. When I got up to get water, I saw you lying on the sofa in the living room...I thought you were as drunk as I was. Oh, by the way, if I remember rightly, I opened the door for someone who was looking for you.”

“Did you sleep?” Jenny is in a trance. Suddenly, she remembers the blood and yanked her to a side and lays down beside the bed. Unexpectedly, she sees a pool of “blood” beside the bed, but it doesn’t smell like blood.

“What is this?”

“Well...” Victoria laughs embarrassedly, “...It is ketchup. I was drunk, and I didn’t notice that it was knocked over. I stepped on it, so it is now everywhere.”

Jenny’s face suddenly changes, which is as white as a paper.

“Don’t worry, I’ll clean it up...”

Seeing that Jenny’s face changes, Victoria believes that she is angry that she makes the house dirty, so she explains quickly.

And that’s not what Jenny is talking about.

So it’s not a dream.

The sense of suffocation on her neck remaining reminds her that she almost died.

The dispute between her and Luke was due to Adan. If she had not misunderstood what Luke had done to Victoria, it would not turn into such a situation.

“Mm,don’t scare me. What’s wrong with you?”

Victoria’s voice fades.

She gets out of the bed, like a mechanical doll, and says lightly, “I want to take a bath. you can go to sleep now.”

The sound of the water in the bathroom calms her down a little, but the bruises on her shoulder and the visible pinch marks on her neck reminds her that everything was real.

She shrinks suddenly, as if having seen that pair of cold eyes in front of her again.

Luke is not a philanthropist. How could she have been so naive at first?

She thought that he could help her find out the truth of that year. They could get along with each other like an ordinary couple, and gradually have feelings, and mutual trust.

He may have feelings for her, but such feelings can’t stand any test. Instead of calling it love, it’s just desire of possessiveness. If he knows that her purpose of approach him is actually to investigate the relationship between his family and the case of Jin’s Wine, what will happen?

Can she bear the consequences?

Will he consider about divorce?

Thinking of that, she could not help burying her head into the water in the bathtub. She wants to shut her eyes and ears, and have peace for a moment.

The next morning, Victoria comes out from her bedroom with her hands on her head. She is stunned when she sees Jenny, “you don't go to work today?”

Jenny avoids eye contact with her and says, “I’ll go later.”

Going to the company may encounter Luke. Although it is not very likely. Luke’s office is on the 10th floor, and the area for stars is usually from the first to the fifth floor.

Victoria doesn’t seem to remember what has happened last night. She sits down with a piece of toast, puts peanut butter on it, then puts it in her mouth, and looks at Jenny, “when did you come back last night? I have no idea at all.”

“In the middle of the night. Adan sent me back.”

“What...” Victoria says with surprise, “what did I hear? Is Adan back?”

“Don’t you know?” Jenny answers casually.

“What the hell would I know? You guys hide going out for dinner from me. I need your guys to buy me two meals for compensation...”

Victoria looks very angry, “how can you two kept it from me for two days. Did you go out with Adan the night before yesterday when you were not home?”

Jenny is so tired now as she didn’t fall asleep all night. She doesn’t want to argue with her. After drinking milk, she carries her plate and goes to the kitchen, “clean up the ketchup in your room when you have time. Otherwise, it will attract mice and cockroaches.”

“Why is me? I didn’t do it.”

“Come on. You can’t remember is because you drunk too much.”

“Don’t cheat me because I can’t remember anything. Why would I have anything to do with ketchup?”

“Who knows what you were thinking about?”

Having joked with Victoria, Jenny feels much better. After cleaning up the kitchen, she changes her clothes and prepares to go to the company.

She is not ready to face Luke. Maybe he is the same.

He misunderstood her first, but she doesn’t have much faith in him as well.

Up to now, there is no way to figure out who is right and who is wrong.
